Moderna COVID Vaccine
Is Shown to Be Safe, Will Likely Be Approved.
New data released on
Tuesday supports Moderna's
own findings about the efficacy of the vaccine.
The Moderna trial was conducted
among 30,000 people
and showed an efficacy of 94.1 percent.
The review from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
means that the drug is eligible for emergency use.
As with the Pfizer vaccine, an
advisory panel will meet on Thursday
to offer an assessment on whether
the vaccine should be approved.
Sources say that the FDA will likely
approve the vaccine on Friday.
Nearly six million doses could
potentially be ready for distribution
once it is approved.
On Monday, the U.S. surpassed 300,000 total deaths
due to COVD-19, more than any other country by far
